Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien - Edith Piaf

Non… rien de rien…

Non… je ne regrette rien

Ni le bien qu’on ma fait,

Ni le mal – tout ça m’est bien égal!

Non… rien de rien…

Non… je ne regrette rien

C’est payé, balayé, oublié,

Je me fous du passé!

Avec mes souvenirs

J’ai allumé le feu,

Mes chagrins, mes plaisirs,

Je n’ai plus besoin d’eux!

Balayé les amours

Avec leurs trémolos

Balayés pour toujours

Je repars à zéro…

Non… rien de rien…

Non… je ne regrette rien

Ni le bien qu’on ma fait,

Ni le mal – tout ça m’est bien égal!

Non… rien de rien…

Non… je ne regrette rien

Car ma vie, car mes joies,

Aujourd’hui, ça commence avec toi!

What if I can’t be all that you need me to be? We’ve got a good thing going, we have some promises to keep. But my addiction it can be such a detriment. Please believe in this my dear, I am more than penitent. What if everything’s just the way that it will be? Could it be that I am meant to cause you all this grief? There’s a degree of difficulty in dealing with me. From my haunted past comes a daunting task of living through memories. If we could just hang a mirror on the bedroom wall, stare into the past and forget it all. So when we leave it’ll be a quick midnight escape.

I wish I could do better by you, cause that’s what you deserve. You sacrifice so much of your life, in order for this to work. While I’m off chasing my own dreams. Please know that I’m yours to keep, my beautiful girl. And when you cry, a piece of my heart dies, knowing that I may have been the cause. If you were to leave, fulfill someone elses dreams, I think I might totally be lost. You don’t ask for no diamond rings, no delicate string of pearls. That’s why I wrote this song to sing, my beautiful girl. Oh oh oh oh…
